EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate details of a Cartouche in the North Pacific Ocean, created between 1776-79 by Nicolas Lane. The piece is a terrestrial and celestial pocket globe, showcasing geographical features such as monsoons in the Indian Ocean and the Chinese Wall. Australia is depicted according to Captain Cook's discoveries, with Tasmania still connected to the mainland and labeled as 'Dimens Land'.
One notable detail on this piece is a note marking Captain Cook's death on Owhyhee, adding a somber touch to an otherwise beautifully crafted work of art. The tracks of both Anson and Cook are clearly marked on the globe, providing historical context to this unique cartographic creation.
The use of papier mache, wood, plaster, varnish, metal, embossed paper, brass, paint, copper plate engraving and hand-coloring adds depth and texture to this piece. The attention to detail in every aspect of its construction showcases Lane's skill as an artist and geographer.
Displayed at the National Maritime Museum in London, this Cartouche serves as a reminder of early exploration and discovery during the 18th century. Its vibrant colors and intricate design make it a true masterpiece that continues to captivate viewers centuries after its creation.
